La Roche-Posay has created the Be Clear Bootcamp to help anyone who struggles with acne. Why a Bootcamp? Because to develop this training ground we have partnered with dermatologists to provide you with condensed content to get you all the facts you need to know about acne. Discover new articles, ask frequent acne questions and get more expert advice about acne using the hashtag #beclearbootcamp. Oily skin face wash cleanser gently cleanses impurities and reduces excess oil while helping to prevent over drying. Face wash is formulated with Zinc Pidolate to purify skin and help remove excess oil. *Confirmed by L'Oréal Active Cosmetics Division, 2020. Dermatologists recommend washing your face twice a day with a gentle face cleanser. In the morning, to remove all the oils that have accumulated on the face overnight, and in the evening to remove the day’s makeup, dirt, and pollutants, all of which can exacerbate acne and premature aging. Use as a daily, face wash cleanser for oily skin. Cleanse morning and/or evening. Gentle enough for everyday use .Wet face with lukewarm water and apply small amount of gel, messaging the skin gently to form a rich lather. Rinse thoroughly with water. Effaclar offers breakthrough solutions for acne and oily skin developed with dermatologists for fast visible results. Effaclar formulas are dermatologist tested to be suitable on sensitive skin. This is a critical part of the La Roche-Posay mission to improve quality of life through skin.

    • Perfect Cleanser for Oily & Sensitive Skin!
Size: 13.52 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using this cleanser for a few weeks now, and I’m genuinely impressed. It removes excess oil without making my skin feel dry or tight. My face feels fresh and clean after every wash, and I’ve noticed fewer breakouts and less shine throughout the day. The gel lathers nicely, has a light, clean scent, and is gentle enough for my sensitive skin. I also love that it’s alcohol-free and oil-free. A little goes a long way, so the bottle lasts a long time. I would definitely recommend this cleanser to anyone with oily or acne-prone skin. Great quality and worth every penny! ... show more

    • Perfectly suited for oily skin without feeling aggressive or drying
Size: 13.52 Fl Oz (Pack of 2)
I’ve been using this liquid cleanser for a while now and it honestly exceeded my expectations. One single pump is enough to wash my entire face, even after long stressful days when my skin feels extra oily and heavy. The texture feels like a soft gel, it foams nicely without being too much, and it leaves my skin feeling genuinely clean without that tight, stripped feeling some cleansers give. It also has no fragrance at all, which I really appreciate because it doesn’t irritate my skin or feel harsh in any way. What I like most is that it simply does its job perfectly. It removes oil, sweat, and daily buildup really well while still feeling gentle and comfortable on the skin. A little product goes a long way, so the bottle lasts much longer than I expected. After trying so many cleansers that either dry out my skin or barely clean it, this one feels like one of those underrated products people should talk about more. ... show more

This left my skin feeling clean and my pores felt like it can breathe again. Would not recommend for dry skin since it dries the skin out. Definitely my go to cleanser.

    • Good cleanser for oily skin
Size: 13.52 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This is a good cleanser overall, especially if you have oily skin. It foams up nicely and leaves my face feeling clean without feeling overly stripped or harsh. I like that it’s alcohol-free and oil-free, and it does a good job removing excess oil during the day. The scent is pretty mild, and a little goes a long way, so the bottle should last a decent amount of time. Giving it 4 stars because it works well, but it’s not some miracle product. Still, it’s a solid daily cleanser and I’d buy it again. ... show more
